Chapter 263 The Case of the Snake Fairy in the Black Market of Jiangnan 18
"Last night, we chased the giant python together, and when we arrived at the water cave, those little white snakes rushed up! They entangled again! They bit again!!"

"Fortunately, the little white snake is not poisonous. But we all feel that we can't chase it anymore, but Da Zhuang doesn't want to!"

"He was bitten several times by the little white snake, so angry! He cursed and said that he must catch the giant python and sell it for a good price! Er Gouzi had the same idea as him. But Lao Guan tabooed the legacy left by his ancestors, and Thinking of Xiaoman's age, he said that he can't chase him anymore and wants to go back to the village."

"Who knows! While pushing him, Da Zhuang scolded him for being useless, saying that the snake fairy was a lie made up by his ancestors! The road at night was muddy and slippery! Lao Guan couldn't hold back his strength. He fell down! "

"Xiaoman moved quickly, trying to save him, grabbed Lao Guan with one hand, and Er Gouzi with the other. The three of them slid down together like a skewer! Da Zhuang grabbed Er Gouzi and couldn't bear the weight of the three of them! It took two Gouzi kicks Xiaoman, kicks Xiaoman off!"

"Er Gouzi was rescued. Lao Guan fell to his death! Xiao Man, he, woo, woo, Xiao Man, ahhhhhh!"

"Xiao Man didn't die at the time, right?" Yan Mo asked, "With Lao Guan's support, Xiao Man is probably still alive."

"That's right. Xiaoman broke his leg and couldn't climb up. He shouted for us to save him. Da Zhuang went down the hillside first, saying he was saving someone. Who knows! He was afraid that Xiaoman would go back to the village to file a complaint, and he would crush Xiaoman to death. Ah! Xiao Man! I'm sorry for you, Lao Guan! I'm sorry for you!!"

"That's a monster!" Da Zhuang was still unconvinced, and screamed, "Last night, we chased the giant python, and then there were no ghosts in the village! Snake fairy? Bah! It's a beast! I caught it wrong ?! Lao Guan is timid! Xiao Man only knows how to cry! There is a fart!!"

Hearing this, Yan Mo was very puzzled. What is the relationship between the snake fairy cave, the white python, and the nocturne in the village?
"Tie him up! Take him back to the village so he can give Xiaoman his mother and Laoguan's wife an explanation! Er Gouzi! Do you want to be like him too?!"

Er Gouzi hesitated for a moment when he heard it. In the end, he helped everyone tie up together.
"Bastard! It's all your fault! Beast huh huh!" Da Zhuang cursed a few words at the river, and was stuffed with old belts by everyone!He could only cast resentful glances at He He and Er Gouzi! !

But after a while, everyone managed to subdue Da Zhuang, and when they looked up to inspect, the girl disappeared!

"This girl is very skilled, where did she come from?" Someone asked suspiciously!

"Xu is from over there, don't worry about it! Go back to the village!!"

After everything calmed down, Yan Mo, who was hiding behind the boulder, sighed: "If it helps people, call it a snake fairy; There is no awe at all!!"

Qi Ling twisted his facial features, shook his head and said, "I think you can feel a little awe of it. If it were someone else, who wouldn't be afraid?!" He said while stroking the parrot in his arms. Lovely creatures can make him feel pity! "Fortunately, the group of villagers made trouble, otherwise, the white python would really eat us! Uh uh uh." As he spoke, he shivered, "Why does Xiao Wang feel a little cold?"

As soon as the words fell, he felt more and more wrong!Turning his head quickly, his face immediately turned green! ! !
"Ahhhhhhh! Ghost—"

"!!!" Yan Mo looked back together, only to realize that at some point, the white-haired man was right behind them, silently and silently!She hurriedly protected the Ninth Highness to keep the distance away! ! !

"Ah! Ghost - ah! Ghost -" the macaw broke free from the shackles, spread its wings imitating the human voice, and flew out! !

"When, when did he appear?" Qi Lin cowardly hid behind Yan Mo, pointing forward
The white-haired man put his hands on the boulder to listen. Seeing the other party's puzzled face, he pointed to the river and the cave entrance and then patted himself. He lost his previous vigilance and showed his innocence and innocence.

Yan Mo looked at the entrance of the cave, there was no sound for a long time, and she didn't know where the white python had swam. After looking away, she observed suspiciously, and found that the white-haired man's boots were very clean, not even muddy at all!

Qi Lin looked at the entrance of the cave and the river, and then at the white-haired man, feeling very frightened and flustered. But when the man came over, he was about to hold his and Yan Mo's hands, while gesturing and patting his chest hard!
Yan Mo retreated vigilantly, still keeping a distance! !
Seeing this, the white-haired man hesitated for a moment, then patted his chest again, pointed in the direction of the thatched cottage, and made a curved movement with both hands, as if to signal his well-proportioned figure. Seeing that the two men didn't understand, he picked up a small stone , Draw a few strokes on the big rock, and pat the stone face hard!
"Murals?" Yan Mo asked tentatively. She kept a certain distance, put her hand on the big rock, and asked again, "Do you want us to see those murals?"

The white-haired man nodded vigorously without hesitation! ! !

"No, no, no! No!" Qi Yan shook his head desperately, "We managed to escape! We can't go back!"

The white-haired man blinked, and drew several more eggs on the stone: Please eat eggs!
Seeing this, Qi Ying gasped and cursed: "What kind of status are you as Xiao Wang?! Just a few eggs and you want to trick me into leaving with you?!"

The white-haired man didn't seem to understand, his head tilted, and then his eyes lit up, thinking that the other party was excited, he clapped his hands happily!Showing a harmless smile~
"Don't pay attention to him! The rivers and lakes are reckless, let's go! Hmm—" Qi Yan pulled hard, but he couldn't pull Yan Mo!
"Just now you also saw how the villagers wronged Bai Mang. Anyway, we are not afraid of him, go and see!"

"Don't, you are reckless! You are reckless—Xiao Wang, don't—" His Highness Ninth Prince's aggrieved voice resounded throughout the forest!But God just doesn't help him, and likes to release a few faint lightning bolts in the thick clouds!It makes the atmosphere of the whole island extremely strange! !
"Ah! I'm going to be eaten—ah! I'm not a stupid bird—" The parrot hiding in the tall tree looked at the sky, even if it didn't want to, it had to keep up with the savior!

Back at the thatched cottage, the three of them went straight into the cave.Yan Mo came to the corpse under the signal of the white-haired man.

Qilin found that when entering the cave this time, the little white snakes hid far away, occasionally a few poked their heads out and blinked their eyes.
"The rivers and lakes are reckless, what does he want to do?"

Yan Mo wanted to verify whether the bones were the father in the mural. She looked at the white-haired man and saw that he didn't intend to stop her, so she knelt down to check: "I heard from Mr. Qi that the bone age can be deduced by observing the lines on the bones. I just I've seen how many times he has played it." She squinted her eyes and looked closely, because the light in the cave was scattered and the bones were placed in the dark, it was really hard to distinguish.
The white-haired man seemed to have seen what Yan Mo needed, and he called the white snakes to gather together, using the scales to reflect the scattered light and provide light.

"!" Seeing this, Qi Lin didn't know whether to be afraid or novel.
With the light, Yan Mo tore off a small piece of his clothes, and while cleaning the bones, he looked at the bones carefully and said: "The bones of the legs, the epiphyseal lines are not obvious, and the bones are preliminarily judged to be over 20 years old. The center of the pelvis is large, and there are The skull was divided into six parts due to the birth crack, this is a female corpse!"

"What?! A female corpse? Could it be that his father is a female?" Qi Ling felt his mind was muddled, no matter what he thought it was strange!
"It's not his father, of course it's his mother!" Yan Mo continued, "It will take at least five to ten years for a corpse to turn into bones."

"How can you be sure that she didn't turn into bones after being eaten by monsters!" Qi Lin doubted!

"According to what you said, there must be traces of gnawing on the bones. Her bones are complete and there are no obvious cracks. It means that at least she was not bitten to death!" Yan Mo continued to observe, "Well, her teeth are all intact. Gone."

Because Qi Ying was afraid to get close, he could only tilt his body and looked up: "No teeth. All lost? How old do you have to be to lose all your teeth?"

"However, seventy or eighty. However, if the skeleton died at the age of seventy or eighty, the skeleton will have a tendency to be bent and deformed, but this skeleton looks very healthy." After speaking, Yan Mo stood up and put one hand on the stone wall superior.

Seeing this, the white-haired man put his hands on the same stone wall.

Yan Mo: "Is she your mother?"

The white-haired man frowned, hesitant to speak, and seeing the other party pointing at the corpse, he took a few steps to the realistic mural, pointed at the woman in the painting and nodded vigorously!
Taking advantage of this, Yan Mo pointed to the youngest son in the painting and asked, "Is this you?"

The white-haired man patted his chest and nodded!Then, he walked to the continued mural and slapped the stone wall vigorously!

Yan Mo looked at the mural behind him, either crooked or incomprehensible, and couldn't help muttering: "There is no one with such a bad painting skill." Fu Cai put his hand on the stone and asked brightly, "Do you want say what?"

Out of curiosity, Qi Ling also followed.

"This is... your mother?" Yan Mo discerned and understood according to what the other party pointed out, "Your mother met the white python in the woods? Then went back to the cave and asked the white python to feed you?"

The boy in the painting opened his mouth, drooling, and the white python on the side seemed to be feeding with his mouth.
Yan Mo wasn't sure about the meaning of the mural, she looked at the white-haired man, but saw him frowning, looking back at her very seriously, so she had to bite the bullet and continue: "Afterwards, it was the white python who took care of you. Until, You found your mother dead at the entrance of the cave, and cried for a long time. Then you buried her here, and lived with the white python. What about your father?"

Yan Mo walked over a few steps and pointed to the man in the painting: "Where is your father?"

The white-haired man touches the person in the mural and shakes his head a little lonely
Yan Mo looked at it, and according to the mural, the white-haired man was still a child at that time, and he might not know where his father died. Besides, the dying man in the painting was consistent with the painting style at the beginning, which indicated that his father painted it earlier. everything below.
"You dragged us back, do you want me to help you find your father?"

The white-haired man's eyes moved slightly, unable to hide his sadness. He stared at his father on the rock wall for a long time before shaking his head: his father's bones had already been buried in the soil, and became one with the island.
"Then what are you trying to do by pulling us back?" Yan Mo asked again after thinking about it.

The white-haired man pulled Yan Mo close to the hole, pointed in one direction and poked vigorously, with a serious expression: Over there!right there!
Yan Mo looked out, probably in the direction of the village: "You want me to be wary of those villagers?"

The white-haired man continued to gesticulate, his hands following his figure in a curved movement: Snake Fairy Cave, Snake Fairy God Statue!
"Your figure is really good." Yan Mo struggled to understand
Seeing that the other party didn't seem to understand, the white-haired man returned to the mural, pointed to the picture version of the Snake Fairy Cave, and pointed to Yan Mo's clothes, gesturing to the exaggerated headgear: There is something in the Snake Fairy Cave!I took a lot of fun and nice things from there! !
Yan Mo: "Well, what's in the Snake Fairy Cave?"

Just when Yan Mo asked for understanding, Qi Ying had finished reading all the murals by himself, until finally, he saw a stone slab blocking him, so he tried his best to move it away
The white-haired man felt the vibration under his palm, turned his head, strode past quickly, covered the stone wall with his body, and shook his head: No way!Can't watch this yet!

Yan Mo followed after a few steps, pulled down His Highness Nine and said: "This is his cave after all, the master won't allow it, so don't look at it"

"Xiao Wang is not rare!" Qi Ying waved his hand, pointlessly said!That pouting and angry look is like a child making a fuss and ignoring others!
Yan Mo saw the white-haired man looking at the troublemaker with a look of grievance and loneliness. She must have been sad. She poked His Highness Ninth Prince with her elbow, but seeing that her younger brother still ignored him, she slapped her hard and went around behind him. Pull your hands!
"Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...Don't be too funny!
"You are familiar with this island." Yan Mo leaned on the rock wall with one hand, and pinched Qi Lin's face, "Have you ever seen a man who is about this tall and looks a bit like him?"

Qi Ying wanted to shake off the clutches of the ruthless Jiang Hu, but thought that he was asking about the whereabouts of his second brother, but instead he was very obedient and remained motionless!
The innocent white-haired man wanted to laugh when he saw the grimace, and he felt better when he saw that the boy was no longer angry.After understanding the question, he stroked the young man's face and searched in his mind. As his eyes lit up, he led Yan Mo back to the mural in Snake Fairy Cave, and patted it vigorously!

"." Yan Mo frowned and thought, and suddenly cried out in surprise, "So! This is what you want to tell me! You gestured yourself to say that there is someone who looks like you, right? You know me I want to find him!"

The white-haired man still slapped the rock wall vigorously, pointing at the Snake Fairy Cave!
Yan Mo originally wanted to explore the Snake Fairy Cave again, but now he was eager to find the fox, so he wanted to say goodbye!Thinking of the man's hearing loss, she cupped her hands and put her hand on the rock wall and said, "Thank you, brother, for your guidance! We've bothered you for a long time, so we're leaving!"

"Can we go?" Seeing that he could leave, Qi Ling ran straight to the entrance of the cave like he was having fun!Completely ignoring those little white snakes who poked their heads out and turned their heads as he ran!

Yan Mo cupped his hands again before stepping out of the cave, the man with white hair looked around and watched him off.
"Finally I know the whereabouts of the second brother!" Qi Ying was very happy, holding up his weeping, "If you find the second brother, you can leave this weird island~"

"Ah! I'm not a stupid bird—" The parrot flew over the bushes, and when it saw the lover appeared, it stretched out its paws and stood on his shoulders!
Yan Mo stepped out of the range of the thatched cottage, looked back, and then caught up with the speed of His Highness Ninth Prince: "The Snake Fairy Cave is over there, don't go wrong, please!"

Inside the cave, the white-haired man leisurely came to the stone slab and removed it to reveal the last mural. The picture on it was a white python without teeth and a letter, opening its mouth wide to let the two villains and a bird watching its own mouth.
And those little white snakes that refracted the light, and the little white snakes that were hiding from watching the show, saw the guests leave, so they swam to the man's feet one after another, cuddling and wriggling. Scattered out and joined the snuggle team
At this time, the airflow singing sounded again in the cave, which was mellow and mellow, and the lingering sound curled up.
Qi Lin, who was walking among the trees, was in a happy mood at the moment, and even his steps were very light: "I know why you care so much about that white-haired man!"

Yan Mo straightened his back and followed behind him with vigorous steps: "?"

"Do you think he looks a bit like the second brother?" Qi Lin pouted and looked at him with envy!

"...Maybe." Yan said indifferently, with a calm tone.

"Let me tell you!" Qi Ying said very dissatisfied, "The two of them are not alike at all! The second brother is very smart and has plans in mind, and that man looks like a fool! How do you look alike?! Don't think you have tested it That female corpse can make me believe that he is a human! Xiao Wang dare to assure God, that man must have an ulterior secret!!" As he spoke, he pointed at the thatched cottage frequently. Startled! "Where is the house? Why is it gone?! It was just behind me!!!" He yelled in horror!The frightened parrot didn't dare to stand on his shoulders and spread its wings! !

"!!!" Yan Mo turned his head and looked at the same place, indeed he only saw trees, flowers and plants, nothing else!
　Epiphysis [hóu]: The part at both ends of a long bone, also called epiphysis.
